[Telegrams.]

Department of State,
Washington, January 29, 1914, 8 p.m.

Your January 26, 7 p.m. No objection to American going as a casual observer if meetings are public but it might be resented if meetings are secret. Do nothing in this matter which is not entirely agreeable to Government. Expense should be small and can be paid out of contingent fund.
